COMMENTS
Multiplicity D(n) of multinomial coefficient M(n) is the number of ways the same value of M(n)=n!/(m1!*m2!*..*mk!) is obtained by distributing n identical balls into k distinguishable bins.
Differs from A209936 after a(21).
Differs from A035206 after a(36).
The checksum relationship: sum(M(n)*D(n)) = k^n
The number of terms per row (for each value of n starting with n=1) forms sequence A070289.

Thus for n=3 (third row) the same value of multinomial coefficient follows from the following combinations:
3!/(3!0!0!) 3!/(0!3!0!) 3!/(0!0!3!) (i.e. multiplicity=3)
3!/(2!1!0!) 3!/(2!0!1!) 3!/(0!2!1!) 3!/(0!1!2!) 3!/(1!0!2!) 3!/(1!2!0!) (i.e. multiplicity=6)
3!/(1!1!1!) (i.e. multiplicity=1)
